Walkway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Tullahoma address and unloads right where you point.





Planning a walkway project in Tullahoma starts with the right stone, not just a random pile from the big-box store. Tullahoma gets about 59 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage matters from the first shovel of base stone.
Walkway gravel is sold by the ton and delivered in a dump truck straight to your address. A typical garden path or side-yard walk takes one or two tons, but you can order up to 40-plus tons for larger hardscaping projects.
Choose the size that fits your project. The table below lists every walkway gravel option we carry, with its typical use and a note to help you decide.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | A versatile mix that suits most straight paths and simple layouts. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Almost like a chip seal feel, good for barefoot-friendly garden walks. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Large enough to lock together, small enough to walk on without tripping. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Loose enough to drain fast, heavy enough to stay put in moderate traffic. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Oversized stone that acts as a visual border and slows runoff. |
The wrong stone can turn a simple path into a muddy trough. Match the project to the product that stops the problem before it starts.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Garden path | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 inches deep, compacted over a geotextile base. |
| Patio base | Walkway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction, then a top layer. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer, no compaction needed, placed by hand. |
| Play area surfacing | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Minimum 3 inches loose, no sharp edges. |
| Side-yard walkway | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches deep, drains well under light traffic. |
About 79 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit in Tullahoma. That freeze-thaw cycle can heave an unsettled base, making a path lumpy and unsafe. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
The area also sees roughly 88 wet days a year, each with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground avoids ruts from the truck and lets you compact the stone before it rains again. Snowfall averages about 3 inches annually, which can damage a loose surface if a plow hits it. A well-compacted base resists that better.
Soils mapped in the Tullahoma area are commonly moderately well drained. That means you may need more base stone under the surface layer to keep water from pooling. The ground here sits in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage planning and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.

Walkway gravel works well with several other bulk materials for the same job. Each of these can be delivered to your address in Tullahoma.
Plan around about 88 wet days a year. Each of those days brings at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which can make the ground too soft for a dump truck. Schedule delivery during a dry stretch so you can compact the gravel immediately.
Yes. With about 59 inches of precipitation a year, washout is a real risk for any loose stone surface. A deeper base and a mild slope away from structures help keep the gravel in place during heavy rain.
The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet. If your driveway or access is narrower, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they safely can. Confirm that the path can support a heavy truck.
No. You or someone you nominate must be present during the delivery window. The delivery only goes ahead after you approve the confirmation email that shows the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Absence can lead to a redelivery fee.
